She That Time and Fate Can Never Erase

She That Time And Fate Can Never Erase

BEHOLD- she that a torn heart can repair,
a Venus that bright stars envy and praise
she that reflects morn's firstborn golden rays
sumptuous love, beyond mortal compare!

Soft as silk glistening as fallen dew
blithe spirit, born of Aphrodite's gifts
she of dreams, radiant hope sent so swift
treasured kisses that sets my world anew!

State of resplendent royal purple glow
siren serenading sweetest of songs
awarding respite from world's teeming throngs
sweet as honey, pure as fresh fallen snow!

"O, but for that end true love reunites,
may destiny's arrows fly swift and right!

Darling, my beloved- of beauty's grace
She that Time and Fate can never erase!

Sonnet, plus two( Lind-Sonnet And Two )
( Born of a summer of love in 1973 )
Yet now, thrives as a dream that was
once lived and now tis' deeply treasured!

Dedicated to the inspiration that Byron
and his magnificent poetry that he has
gifted to this too oft dark and sad world....

Thank you my friend. First poet I ever read was Byron. Now Ive read several thousand. Study at least a couple hundred in my 48 years of composing. Always a delight to find another fine poet that truly appreciates the golden poets of old.. God bless...

Thank you my friend. Of course your wonderful poetry is always worthy! I so wish I had more time to read and give the praise that is due to the many great poets here. Life, busy schedule and family duties must be cared for before reading/writing poetry and its time consuming requirements. Hopefully I am back on course now....... God bless.....

Thank you my friend. I hope this is a fitting tribute to Byron. As it is the best I can do at the moment. As my health is not as it should be because of some recent disturbing events in my life. Yet I was taught by a very wise and courageous father, to muster ever onward- as a means not to ever fall and be unable to rise... God bless...
